CBA's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, CBA reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,370,000,000 kg CO2e. The breakdown of emissions for 2022 reveals significant contributions from various scopes: Scope 1 emissions totalled about 17,197,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions were approximately 507,169,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions accounted for about 194,149,000 kg CO2e, with notable categories including purchased goods and services (approximately 136,908,000 kg CO2e) and employee commute (around 2,353,000 kg CO2e). Despite the substantial emissions figures, CBA has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The absence of documented reduction strategies suggests a need for further transparency regarding their approach to mitigating climate impact. As the organisation continues to navigate its environmental responsibilities, the focus on emissions reduction will be crucial in aligning with industry standards and expectations.
